This is more of a psychology question than an English question, but coping mechanisms in general are all used to deal with stress. Stress covers a variety of influences as anything that affects one's mental or physical state.
It means to be in low spirits due to loss of courage or hope. Brainliest plz!!!
So personally I agree with Emerson in his statement because in our current society there is this standard for people to fit into this tiny mold of how someone should be. My motto is if everyone was the same the world would be boring, so I personally believe that we all need to be our own people in order to make our lives and others interesting. So yes I agree with Emerson.
